Alexander asked Diogenes, if he wanted any favor he replied: Stand a little out of my sun.

                             Religion of the Sun

                             Sunrise, sunset
                             Tell how the Sun
                             Move, in words
                             We’ve always used

                             When I was young
                             I learned in school
                             Sun does not move
                             Now I’m confused

                             And since, I started
                             Looking for answers
                             Queries denied
                             Questions refused

                             Shadows of the cane
                             I use for walking
                             Tell me that I
                             Have been abused

                             Shadows do not
                             Exist in darkness
                             When darkness is
                             In light, diffused
